EXCELLENT traditional breakfast fare is what I chose. The Broncho omelette (already gluten-free) without cheese (b/c I'm also dairy-free) was delicious. The hashbrowns and the fruit were good as well. The server was delightful! The place is clean and well-kept. read more

This was so good. Delicious food. Great service. And some fun Valentine's Day specials.

Phillips Avenue Diner is a very good Breakfast spot. Food is fresh and very good. The staff is super helpful and nice. Your never wondering where the waitress or waiter is. They are on top of it. Chicken fried steak is very good. Biscuits and gravy are very good. Apparently this place caught fire and was shut down for 3 months. It's open and packed this Saturday morning. read more

Phillips Avenue Diner - Traditional diner look - Diners Near Me - Sioux Falls, South Dakota

Once again Yelp did not lead us wrong. We arrived at Phillips around 9:30 on a beautiful Saturday morning. Free street parking since it was the weekend. Short wait for a table for 2 maybe 20 minutes max. The hostess was friendly as was our waiter Kelly. We ordered coffee, chocolate milk and the two,two,two. Which is a combination of 2 Eggs, 2 pancakes and 2 of your choice bacon or sausage. Delivered to our table hot in about 10 minutes. The diner was full so the kitchen must have been running smoothly. Everything was good and I give Phillips extra points for the cleanliness, service and nostalgia. If you like good food served by friendly people go here! Oh and the prices are very reasonable! read more

I'm torn about this review bc I'm not sure that it is a fair review. We read the Yelp reviews & went bc of what we read. The menu has changed!!! So all the dishes we were interested in are NOT on the CURRENT menu. We stayed & I tried the poutine bc I've never had it. It had pulled pork on it that was very salty but good flavor. I'm not a gravy fan but, the brown gravy was very good. There were about 6 cheese curds on the whole dish. It was good but I've checked this box. I'll let the poutine experts take it from here. I also had the rueben toasted hard. It was chopped meat with good flavor. I have had better. I think this diner probably plays to its strengths in the breakfast department. I'd go back but, for breakfast items. Rueben, poutine, soft drink $ 27.00 read more

we sat at the counter. While the food was decent, and the guys in the kitchen were working like a machine, very efficient. The main guy in the center touched every piece of toast with his bare hands, no gloves. so every single person in the restaurant got to sample his DNA. I skipped eating the toast. if it wasn't hot or cooked, his hands were on it. not sure of the laws in South Dakota, but this is a no no in most states. read more

One of my favorite places to eat at are Diners. So while in the downtown, I stopped by this Diner. Old school feel to it. We sat down and ordered the Poutine appetizer, the Prime Rib sandwich and the Chicken Fried steak. All the food was really good. Gravy was made from scratch. Sweet potatoe fries were good. The appetizers are maybe overpriced but I will definitely come back if I'm in the area. read more

I went for the downtown Sioux Falls burger battle. The peanut butter and jelly burger was creative but the burger itself was over cooked and dry. A plus for trying something outside the box but poor execution. read more

This is our second time visiting and what brought us back is the early opening hours, the location, the ambiance of the lovely outdoor seating, the excellent service, and the awesome eats! We had a great time, happy they accommodated our group of 11 quickly and with what seemed like ease! The Elvis Waffle looked and tasted like a work of art; I'm definitely ordering that next year when we visit South Dakota again. I had the Spinach & Tomato Omelette and it was tasty; loved the fact they had sourdough as a bread option (I snagged my sister's as she's allergic to gluten). Thank you and we'll see you next summer! read more

my dad and I were coming through town for a day; this diner came recommended. The food and atmosphere were great! my dad and I both ordered the corned hash and shared the fried pickles. our waiter was also super helpful, and checked in on us regularly. I drink a ton of water and he always made sure I had a full glass. I'd recommend this place to anyone visiting town. read more

Cool looking place. Extremely busy. Staff sets false expectations with wait times and food ticket times. Also, server took my order only to come back 10-15 minutes later to inform me they cannot make the food. A spinach and tomato omelette is easy to make with a menu that serves salads and other omelettes. Sad excuse of service. read more

Very cute and welcoming diner! Our server Dane was attentive and personable. I got the breakfast burrito which had wonderful flavor and added on some cholula. They also serve mimosas and a few other cocktails. When I'm back in Sioux Falls, I will definitely stop by again! read more

I visited Phillips Avenue Diner on a quick stop in Sioux Falls. It was a spot I'd found here on Yelp, so I was pretty sure it would be a good find. ;) The building itself is fun and easy to find from the street. We scored parking right out front, which was nice. The service was great! Our waiter was super attentive and patient. He even brought me the salad dressing label so I could read to figure out if it was gluten and dairy free or not. (That gives them all the stars! I appreciate that SO much as someone with food intolerances!) The food was also delicious, and my two dinner mates agreed. I had a salad with grilled chicken that really hit the spot after a day on the road. One friend devoured her Mac n cheese and the other had a nice wrap. If you're in downtown Sioux Falls, hit up this place! And if it's a Tuesday, do it during half price shake time. ;) read more

The food was great, quick service, kid/family friendly, and the atmosphere is welcoming. Highly recommend - lunch, dinner, or breakfast!

Received Hash blacks instead of hash browns. See photo. Requested replacement from one staffer, then another came buy and I still had the hash blacks in front of me, yet she asked if I'm doing all right here? Overrated and overpriced. Very disappointing food and service. read more

Eat here! You won't regret it! We sat at the counter and saw first hand how clean, quick, efficient and pleasant the staff works!!! The food is of highest quality too: thick bacon, homemade sausage patty, hamburger was spot on!! Etc! If your a sweet tooth, they have several unique hand scooped shakes, banana bread French toast and churro waffles -just to name a few! Oh- and the best part.. AMAZING COFFEE!! read more

Phillips Avenue Diner - Huevos Rancheros Burrito....well what's left of it. - Diners Near Me - Sioux Falls, South Dakota

Hit this place for some breakfast. Having my eye on this location we were welcomed and seated pretty quickly. The menu has a variety of options for your choice. I ordered the eggs Benedict. I am partial to those when done correctly. The eggs were done to my liking. The sauce was ok. I enjoyed the flavors. I wouldn't say it's out of this world. Wife ordered the chicken waffles. The chicken was really tasty and blended with the waffle. The syrup was nothing more than bottled syrup. Friend had the farmer's breakfast. It was supposed to have bacon but none or very little was on it. It was the same sauce on the eggs Benedict. Overall it was good food and I will try it again as the service was very good. read more

Was looking for a fun and casual place for brunch in Sioux falls, and this place hit the mark! Bit of a wait but well worth it. This place is in downtown Sioux falls and a walk from everything, including our hotel which was perfect. I got the breakfast burrito with hollandaise sauce drizzled on top, and of course a couple of mimosas on the side. Burrito was very tasty with hashbrowns, eggs, peppers, and sausage inside. I slapped some hot sauce and sour cream on top as well. This burrito is pretty darn large, so definitely don't need a side with it. Service here was extremely friendly and fun! They also serve lunch which also looked tasty from their menu. Recommend if your visiting the area!! read more

Who knew that Reuben fries were a thing? Well, they are and they are delicious! My friend got the hot roast beef sandwich and it was wonderful. Tender beef and yummy gravy. Turns out the diner makes their own corned beef, so that's a big deal to me. Wish we could have eaten here a few more times. read more

This place was recommended by locals and I can see why. Their specialties are the turkey avocado bacon sandwich and the French Dip. Great ambiance and our server was super friendly read more

A classic restaurant located in the heart of downtown Sioux Falls. Large quantities of traditional dishes serving as a source of comfort in the Midwest. I had the Farmers Scrambler, which included of scrambled eggs, potatoes, and bacon covered with hollandaise sauce and cheese. The dish was topped with cheese. Wife got the chicken and waffles, which comprised of wonderfully cooked breaded chicken fillets on a beautifully crispy waffle, earning a score of 5/5 and a promise to have this dish again. read more

Two of us walked in. A man said, "hey guys. I'll seat you in a minute". Then we sat as the only ones there ignored for ten minutes. Then two more people came in and they smiled and sat THEM. Then we waited a few more and decided to just leave. We are both normal, educated, professionals. I told a worker we were leaving because we were being ignored and were told "I smiled at you" and then were told "well I can seat you"...um, after being ignored now you can seat me? It was so weird. We left. Don't recommend. read more

Real hashbrowns! They are getting harder and harder to find these days. This is a classic diner in the heart of downtown Sioux Falls. Most recent visit was Easter Sunday and we were grateful that they were open. Typical diner menu, well executed. Only dislike was the iced tea. Not my fave. read more

I HAD A TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE WITH THIS PLACE, and I was so excited to try it. Been wanting to check this place out for years and I finally did only to be let down. I wanted a turkey blt in a wrap instead of a sandwich and the waitress informed me they couldn't do that but could do the southwest chicken wrap instead and substitute the chicken for turkey but there'd be a upcharge. I said that was fine. She brings me my food in a timely matter only for it to be a plain blt wrap. When I asked her where the turkey was, she said I didn't order that. When she's the one who suggested what I should order and I agreed. She was very rude and didn't fix my order. I ended up not eating it, and she still made me pay. I'll never go there again, extremely let down ): read more

What a great place to take a break and step back in time! Great Chicken & Waffles. Wish I could have had a milkshake - they looked great as well. My wife said the French dip was way above the norm. The horseradish put it over the too! read more

I visited Phillips Avenue Diner for lunch during a pit stop in Sioux Falls. I found this spot because of yelp, so I was optimistic that it was going to be a good find. The service here was spectacular. I walked in and immediately got a seat even though it was prime lunchtime. Our waitress was really good at making sure we had a full glass each time she walked by. The kitchen did a great job of getting our food out as quick as possible. For my food, I had never had poutine before, so I ordered that for an appetizer. I don't know if this is bad poutine or good poutine, but my friends and I loved the poutine. For my meal, I ordered the hot mashed potato and chicken wrap and it was quite good and quite filling. There is so much on the menu that looked good, so I wish I could have another opportunity to eat here. Overall: Food 8/10 Service 10/10 Atmosphere 10/10 Price 8/10 read more

Delicious! Who doesn't like a diner? This isn't Denny's and it's not trying too hard. Daily specials like waffles, shakes, and Sunday drink deals. Only saw the breakfast menu but dinner looks extensive with a ton of options. Opted for a burrito since the omelette options seemed lacking. Came out fast and was a great value. Got a small orange juice and it's some of the best juice I've had. Not sure if it was squeezed or food service delivered but it was awesome. Not too sweet or tart. Sat at the counter for that real diner experience. Wait staff were friendly. Kitchen staff jolly. (Worked in many a restaurant and this place has a good customer and internal vibe.) To go orders. Coffee and sweet treats also. Good location and hours of operation. Certainly coming here again for breakfast, lunch, brunch, dinner, or late night eggs and hash browns. read more
